Central America’s first Holocaust museum to open in Guatemala

The first museum in Central America dedicated to remembering the Holocaust will focus on a lesser-known side of the Nazi-led genocide: the Holocaust by bullets. This is the name given to the mass murder by shooting of Jewish and Roma communities in the Soviet Union during the 1940s. Due to open early in 2017, the permanent display at Holocaust Museum of Guatemala will memorialise these victims through the stories of local witnesses.Launched by the organisation Yahad-In Unum, a non-profit founde
